[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-11859) PseudoAuthenticationHandler fails with httpcomponents v4.4

Eugene Koifman created HADOOP-11859:
---------------------------------------

             Summary: PseudoAuthenticationHandler fails with httpcomponents v4.4
                 Key: HADOOP-11859
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11859
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Eugene Koifman
            Assignee: Eugene Koifman


This shows in the context of WebHCat and Hive (which recently moved to httpcomponents:httpclient:4.4) but could happen in other places.

URLEncodedUtils.parse(String, Charset) which is called from PseudoAuthenticationHandler.getUserName() with the 1st argument produced by HttpServletRequest.getQueryString().
The later returns NULL if there is no query string in the URL.

in httpcoponents:httpclient:4.2.5 parse() gracefully handles first argument being NULL, but in 4.4 it NPEs.
